Girls Basketball:
It doesn’t get much more clutch than that.
With three games to play in the 2022-23 regular season, Bonita trailed first-place Glendora and Claremont by one game.
The Bearcats had to face the Wolfpack and Tartans on Friday and Tuesday, respectively.
In the first round of Palomares League play, Bonita lost by three at Claremont, and the Tartans handed the Bearcats a 15-point home loss back on Jan 13.
But on Friday, BHS would earn an impressive 42-27 victory over visiting Claremont.
And four days later, Bonita left the Glendora High School gym having defeated the Tartans, 46-40, on Tuesday night.
With one game to play, BHS, GHS and CHS are locked in a three-way tie for first place.
Nicole Uballe led Bonita with 14 points.
Amore Mason chipped in with 12 points.
And Tressa Beatty contributed seven points.
One bright spot for Glendora was Rylie Anderson becoming just the seventh player in program history to join the 1,000-point club.
More impressively, Anderson is the first non-senior to surpass 1,000 career points.
Anderson scored a game-high 15 points.
Reagan Herrmann or ‘Ronnie’ as she’s called, chipped in with 13 points.
Quotable:
Bonita coach, Taylor Anderson: “I am so incredibly proud of the way that this team has trusted the process of growth, come together in unity, demonstrated a consistent competitive drive, and battled tough teams with resilience. Tonight’s win was a culmination of these things in addition to the amount of preparation that goes into each game. In addition, Coach Kearns’ experience and defensive focus have been crucial to our success. I’m excited for this team and what is to come.”
